Choose the right answer on the basis of the following statement and conclusions.
Statement: It is almost impossible to survive and prosper in their world without sacrificing ethics and morality.
Conclusions:
I: World appreciate some concepts but may not uphold it.
II: Concept of ethics and morality are not practicable in life.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → Only II follows
A conclusion follows only if it can be drawn from what the statement says. The statement says that to survive and prosper in the world one has to give up ethics and morality.
Conclusion I: World appreciate some concepts but may not uphold it. Does not follow. The statement says nothing about the world appreciating ethics or any other concept; it speaks only of what one has to give up to prosper.
Conclusion II: Concept of ethics and morality are not practicable in life. Follows. If one can hardly survive without sacrificing ethics and morality, then living by them is not practicable, which is what the statement says in other words.
